@Dubconferencedotorg Because it was invented by Nikola Tesla, and its a turbine.

to all you complainers. put a damned fan blade on it and you've got a fan. there, a tesla turbine doing work and providing a service. just maybe this has never been developed for commercial use because of people that sit around bitching. it won't work it won't work it's junk. get a life.

@siciliancara it was actually designed to run on any kind of power, from combustion gasses to water to steam or whatever. it is very power-source-agnostic.

How do you keep the steam from eventually killing the bearings?

@limescreen he is creating his own powerplant dude, get it?

WOW that is COOL or HOT lol what kind of load would you expect from something like this? could you make a decent electric generator?

[mciceteade]

have you ever put an alternator on this turbine?

[DecibelAlex]

Steampunk fan?

[siciliancara]

wasn't the inspiration for Tesla to build a turbine that didn't require steam power. that's a DE-evolution
